Munnar a popular tourist destination in the state

Munnar, a popular tourist destination in the state, is also on the list of Top 10 Indian destinations on Google's Zeitgeist site. Kerala at number one and the Taj Mahal at number two were followed by the Wagah Border (Punjab), Vaishno Devi and Amarnath (both in Jammu and Kashmir). Kerala has edged out the Taj Mahal to become the number one in Google's search trends. Kashmir came number six on the list of Top ten travel destinations. Munnar was number nine, followed by the Gateway of India (Mumbai) accoding to the search treands. Kerala Tourism is a leader in online promotional activities for the state.

This news really makes us proud. Even though our small state does not have any tourist destination which is one of the best among the world, but at least here we have Munnar standing one among the top 10 destinations in India. That itself is a great achievement. Kerala is truly god's own country.

I personally have been to Munnar and it is a place worth visiting. It is Indian Switzerland.

Yes that news was a enthusing all in Kerala. Let the Government and the Tourism Development Council take a cue from this and try to develop other suitable sites so that more people from all over India and abroad will be attracted.There is no doubt there are several places in Kerala which can compete with any other tourist attractions in the country. We lack even now a concrete mechanism to develop and build amenities for the tourists. Keeping such places clean must be given priority.T.M.SankaranGold Member, SPK
